Mother’s Day is the perfect opportunity to show your mum just how much she means to you, and what better way to do so than by treating her to something as beautiful and practical as the Wade Blue Floral Pasta Bowl Set? Whether she loves hosting dinner parties or simply enjoys a beautiful set of crockery for family meals, she is sure to adore this elegant collection.

The bowls are a really good shape with a wide, flat base and gently curved sides, making them the perfect cross between a plate and bowl. They are the ideal shape  for twirling spaghetti, tossing a salad, or even serving crisps and the 22.5cm bowls offer ample space for even the heartiest of appetites.

Inspired by vintage floral illustrations from the Wade archive, the soft blue tones lend a contemporary twist to a classic design, enhancing the beauty of natural blooms. Each bowl has a unique floral motif, creating a sense of individuality while still working together as a set.  Whether they are used for a casual family supper or a more formal dinner party, these bowls have a timeless design that will look equally at home in both a traditional and modern decor.

The bowls are made in Stoke-on-Trent, the heart of British pottery, from high-quality English earthenware, ensuring durability and longevity. Practical as well as beautiful, the bowls are dishwasher and microwave safe, though it is recommended that the bowls are handwashed to prevent the pattern fading over time.

This set of bowls would make a fantastic gift for anyone who enjoys cooking, entertaining, or simply appreciates beautiful tableware.

Valerino Aromas Candle Care Gift Bundle

Mothering Sunday, or as most of us know it, Mother’s Day, is the perfect time to show our mums just how much we love and appreciate them. It falls on the fourth Sunday of Lent, meaning the date changes each year, so if you’re not careful, it can sneak up on you before you know it! This year, it’s on the 30th of March, so don’t worry – there’s still time to find that perfect gift.

If you’re scratching your head for ideas, let me introduce you to Valerino Aromas – a brand that really knows how to make a house feel like a home. They create the most delightful scents, all lovingly handcrafted with the finest ingredients. Whether it’s their hand-poured soy wax candles, rich wax melts, or stylish fragrance accessories, each product is made to bring a touch of luxury and warmth to everyday life. What’s more, their use of designer-inspired perfume scents will add a touch of sophistication to any home.

They kindly sent me one of their natural soy wax candles, and let me tell you – what a treat! When I opened the box, I was greeted by the most beautifully presented candle, tucked inside a soft fabric gift bag and tied with a golden ribbon. It felt so luxurious and thoughtful – the kind of gift that would make any mum feel extra special.

Of course, the real magic is in the scent. Before I even lit it, the beautiful fragrance filled the room. And once the wick was glowing, the air was instantly transformed. The English Pear and Freesia scent, inspired by Jo Malone, is perfectly balanced – noticeable but never overpowering. Plus, the stylish white glass jar with elegant gold lettering makes it look as good as it smells.

If you’re looking for an extra special gift then the Candle Care Gift Bundle is the one to go for. You get a regular 30cl hand-poured candle in your choice of scent, a sleek candle trimmer and snuffer and a rechargeable USB lighter – a safe and sustainable way to light your candles. You can even choose the trimmer and snuffer set in gold, silver, or black. It’s classy, practical, and makes a gorgeous display.

With a burn time of over 25 hours, the candle promises plenty of cosy evenings surrounded by beautiful aromas. And here’s the best bit – it only costs £23, and if you spend over £30, delivery is free. So why not treat Mum and yourself at the same time?

Valerino Aromas is the perfect way to show some love this Mother’s Day. Trust me, it’ll be a gift she won’t forget!
